Hi, Brian!
Thank you for sending the rest of your question to me. I'm happy that my dining recommendations were helpful! I did want to mention one other character dining experience your kids may enjoy:
Chip 'n Dale's Harvest Feast at The Garden Grill restaurant in Epcot. The entire restaurant actually rotates very slowly and you'll get to meet the always playful and slightly naughty Chip and Dale. (The Big Cheese himself may also stop by for a visit!).
My personal opinion on the best time to dine at Cinderella's Royal Table is for breakfast or lunch when the kids aren't yet exhausted from a full day of park touring and are able to really enjoy the whole experience. And I just think it's more fun dining in the upstairs Banquet Hall during the daytime when the sun's rays illuminate the beautifully themed stained-glass windows. There is a great view of Fantasyland from the windows at the back of the Castle. And, by the way, I just have to mention that the Stuffed French Toast served at breakfast is amazing!
But, honestly, the best time to dine in Cinderella Castle is any time you can get a reservation! Cinderella's Royal Table, along with Be Our Guest restaurant in the Beast's Castle, are the hottest dining tickets in Magic Kingdom Park, so be sure to make your
Advance Dining Reservations for Cinderella's Royal Table as soon as possible! You'll have the best chance of securing a reservation if you can be a bit flexible with your dates and times.
Wishing your family a
magical vacation, Brian! Please don't hesitate to send me any other questions as you plan your trip.
